With rising temps come rising hemlines, bare shoulders... and eventually, bikini season. Add these metabolism-boosting foods and drinks to your shopping list, and you'll score a leaner and sexier bod. Chicken BreastMeet the ultimate wonder food. Chicken is packed with protein, which is essential for maintaining muscle mass-and the more muscle mass you have, the more efficient you are at burning calories. Even better, protein takes more time to digest than carbohydrates, so you'll feel full longer than if you ate the same number of calories in a carb-or fat-heavy meal. An ideal serving: the size of a computer mouse or a deck of cards.

Greek YogurtCalcium consumed in tandem with an amino acid found in dairy products has been shown to burn fat. Consider it a fab excuse to add more yogurt, milk, and cheese to your meal plans. What makes Greek yogurt a standout dairy option is that it has more protein that the regular kind-so you boost the fat-burning benefits.

Green TeaResearch suggests that consuming two to four cups of fresh brewed green tea daily can help you burn about an extra 50 calories a day. It's teeming with catechins, nutrients linked to increased metabolism and a smaller waistline.

EggsScramble up two eggs for breakfast tomorrow-it's a fat-melting morning meal. Part of the reason is that eggs are loaded with protein (which will keep you feeling full for longer), but also, eating in the a.m. means you end up taking in fewer calories during the day, research shows.

Cold WaterYou've probably heard the tip to drink water when you're hungry, in case the pangs you're feeling are actually thirst. Well, here's another reason to down the H2O: When you drink ice water, your body actually expends energy, warming the water up to your natural temperature.

Chili PepperCapsaicin, the ingredient that gives chili peppers their fiery kick, can also fire up your fat-burning furnace. Order more hot curries and other spicy dishes when you eat out, or just add a tablespoon of chopped chilis to your pizza or soup at home.

PistachiosThese nuts contain the right balance of healthy fat, protein, and fiber, and together they rev your metabolism and keep you feeling satisfied. About 50 pistachios equals one serving, so pop some in a bag and munch when you're feeling snacky.

The last time i was on a road trip with my family , we were driving next to a commercial truck , that had beautiful billboards designs which changed to a different picture at intervals. It was fun and i was relaxed and comfortable driving next to a commercial truck. People are apprehensive driving next to commercial trucks because of their size and all but they are not such bad vehicles to drive next to.

Commercial trucks for sale are quite useful vehicles. They convey large and bulky goods from one state to another. Statistics show that 72% of road accidents are caused by smaller cars and not commercial trucks. We can avoid these accidents by following some simple tips while driving around them.

Tips For Driving Next To Commercial Trucks.

-Drive so the driver of the commercial truck can see you- Just like in other vehicles, there are blind spots for commercial trucks. If you can,t see the driver's mirror, they probably can,t see you.

- Avoid driving too close to commercial vehicles.

-Give the commercial truck plenty of room to stop- Commercial trucks are big vehicle that carry heavy load . They need a good distance to stop at an intersection or traffic light. If you are behind a commercial truck, avoid rushing ahead to fill in the gap ahead if they are slowing down to stop.

- Make sure you don,t drive very close to a commercial truck for long - Because of the size of the vehicle, the wind that comes from the car can be dangerous to smaller cars. Also because the tyres of trucks tend to burst.

- Call the authorities if you see unsafe driving.

The late singer's will states that all of her personal effects, cars, clothing, jewellery and furnishings should go to her surviving children.

Whitney signed the will on 3 February 1993, a month before she gave birth to her daughter.

The money will be held in a trust, and 19-year-old Bobbi Kristina will receive part of it when she turns 21, more at 25, and then the balance at 30.

Trustees can give her money for specific purposes, like tuition, house buying or starting a business.

It is thought Whitney's mother Cissy is the executor of the will, and her brother and sister-in-law are trustees, according to BANG Showbiz.

Poor Bobbi Kristina, i hope she picks up the peices and moves on. The property sure can,t bring back her dear Mother. May the soul of Whitney Houston and the souls of the faithful departed, Through the mercy of God may they rest in peace..Amen
